18、年使我变得更好” ，故用 better。9warmth 考查名词。thanks to 为介词短语，其后可接名词作宾语，再结合“politeness and”可知，空处应填 warmth。10importantly 考查副词。结合语境可知，此处表示“最重要的是” ，修饰整个句子，应用副词，故此处应填 importantly。练(二) 第四部分写作增分专练练规范(限时：40 分钟).应用文写作假定你是李华，Tom 邀请你和几个朋友周六一起吃饭，你已接受了邀请，但你突然有事不能前往。请你给 Tom 写一封信表示歉意。内容如下：1感谢 Tom 的邀请；2不能赴约的原因；3希望 Tom 代你向赴约的其他
